just ran out of my fav leave in. I wanted to wear a HUGE fro like braidout & the leave in that I use is the best for it. I really hope I have enough time to buy some tonight.
 
I think this aphogee regimen is working well for me. I also got a couple of microfiber hair towels from target that work really well!!
 
I can't wait till all my hair is texlaxed. I'm be sooo fly. They won't be able to hold a sister down!!!

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

Thats a very cute style! Im inspired. Im transitioning to texturized and mY hair is at an awkward length, too. Is that an under braid? (Thats what we called them in Chicago) :look:

Thank you. It's a few flat twist around the perimeter. I did the sides to my ear. I started one across the back and I pinned the sides and tucked the ends into the twist with brown bobby pins. Illusion of my twist/braid.

I only left the back out since it wouldnt stay in.

I just use smaller sized rollers for hair and pull it extra tight. That's the only way I get my hair straight and its still kinda wavy. Try pulling the rollers tighter and put that flat iron down ;) you thank me later.

Cute protective style too!

Thanks for the tips. I only flat ironed since I was trying to look "presentable" for a work conference and I thought I could have a little short do happen...didn't work:/

From now on I will air dry and flat twist. I will try roller setting when it gets longer because I wouldn't wear it out at this length. In the past I would cut the nape off and wear a short do and grow the back in only once the crown area reached that section. This helped my hair grow out in a bob style.

This time I am aiming for length ASAP and I want to keep every inch. Goal is Full NL in back and Chin length in front by next year.

I was going to wear a sexy braidout today but decided against it & threw a wig on instead. Bday is next week & it looks like its going to be another wig day. smh
 
Real talk --- but like really ladies, are we really gonna let the opinion of a particular group run us off, frustrate us, make us lurk vs. post, etc. Relaxed heads are of the minority and those younger sisters and/or struggling sisters need our support to make it through their challenges. I get that no one wants to be subjected to nasty attitudes every time we log on but so long as they are not blasting me specifically, I simply ignore it. I comment if I feel passionate enough, but most times I don't have the energy to participate in the senseless debate. Everyone is truly entitled to their opinion regardless if I agree with it. If I don't agree with you, fine but you won't run me off. I will be here, up in LHCF be it relaxed, texlaxed, nappy (yep, said it), broken nape, jacked up edges, relaxer set back, protein/moisture imbalanced, flat out confused and don't know where to turn, natural or flat out bald. I paid my money and I will enjoy every dime. You won't ruin my joy. I have plenty other things that go on IRL that attempt to steal that.

(to many included in this discussion to mention specifically so feel free to chime in)
 
Me and my friend went to a new hair store and I bought some stuff...smh..but I didn't get the hooded dryer yet..I'm going to wait until next month since the sale is going to last a while

ETA: I finally got a new (very large) satin scarf so now I can throw my old raggedy one away

You got me sitting here imagining how your braid out will look. Girl, let it be, let it be, let it be. And don't forget the pictures!!!!
 
My hair was super dry this morning. I've been so tired the past couple of days that I haven't M&S at all...so I got up and did a very thorough M&S, pinned my hair up in a little bun and put my scarf on. Since I'm off today, I'm not gonna go anywhere..just stay home and relax
 
Debating on roller setting or air drying. I don't think my hair is that long, but air dried, its super hard to deal with because its seems like a lot. Hair life shouldn't be this hard :(
 
Just came back from target & got a mini product haul. I bought 2 jars of the curls passion fruit for my Havana/sengelese twists install next week and two conditioners by Bert's bees. One is the Gud cherry blossom & almond milk softening conditioner and the other one is the baobab conditioner. Both are meant to increase moisture in ur hair & both conditioners are free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates & petrochemicals(whatever that is). I can't wait to try them. I think I'm going to use the baobab one first as a DC.

I hope Bert's bees work for you, I have the Brazilian nut moisture (whatever it's called) and its doesn't do anything to my hair, it actually feels like it can be a cleansing conditioner pelohello

I hope so too. I'm really striking out with these natural conditioners. They have no slip! I might have to go back to my queen Helene if I can't find any quality natural conditioners (or at least semi natural:lol:)
